Review and mandate DNA testing to end honey fraud and protect real producers.

Petition Details

We urge the Government to bring forward regulations that mandate DNA testing to ensure honey purity. We believe that current tests fail to detect widespread adulteration.

Additional Information

Genuine honey deserves better protection. Let’s preserve its integrity.

There are concerns that counterfeit honey floods the market, undercutting real beekeepers and deceiving consumers, and current sugar profiling tests fail to catch sophisticated fraud. We think that DNA testing could ensure authenticity, protecting livelihoods and maintaining fair competition. The Government should act decisively to mandate advanced testing to safeguard genuine honey, and uphold the integrity of the UK honey market for all.
